Product Overview

ZWO AM5N Mount

 Improved for 2024:

  • New USB-C & DC 12v output ports on the mount saddle for improved cable management
  • New Bluetooth compatibility for improved connectivity
  • New base design eliminates azimuth locking knobs
  • Improved tracking with higher load angles & heavier payloads
  • Periodic error reduced from ±20 down to ±10 arcseconds

 

Features

*Note: The recommended operating voltage for the ZWO Harmonic Equatorial Mount is 12V. When the actual input voltage is below 10.8V, the mount will emit a beeping alarm to indicate under-voltage condition. To ensure proper functioning of the equipment, we recommend using the official ZWO power adapter and an appropriately sized power cable.
